In 2010, Horáková led the Czechs to a silver medal at the World Championship on home soil.

According to idnes.cz, Horáková, who turns 33 on 11 September, has signed a two-year contract to play for Brno, the club whose books she was on for 11 years before signing for Fenerbahce for the 2010-11 campaign.

Last season she played for UMMC Ekaterinburg and after a loan spell to Good Angels Kosice moved back to Ekaterinburg and represented the outfit at the EuroLeague Women Final.

"After two years away, I wanted to finally come home again," she said.

Brno were in dire need of experienced players last season when they barely caused a ripple in the EuroLeague Women, winning just once in 14 games.

Club president Michal Chládek said: "With Horáková, we expect the continued stabilization of the club.

"Hana Horáková is considered a phenomenal Czech basketball player and an extremely intelligent personality.

"We expect her to help the young players and to move us away from where we were last year."
